Gigabit LAN PCI Adaptor RC400
Low Profile 1000/100/10BASE-T Ethernet PCI Host
1. Introduction
This PCI Host Adapter can upgrade your desktop computer to have high-speed networking
transfer rate up to 1000 Mbps. It can support Low profile PCI and regular size PCI both. The
board provides a 32bit, 33/66 MHz PCI interface and RJ-45 Port fully compliant with IEEE 802.3
(10Base-T Ethernet), IEEE 802.3u (100Base-TX Fast Ethernet), IEEE 802.3z (1000Base-T Gigabit
Ethernet) networking.
This adapter supports half/ full duplex feature which can double network speed. 1000BaseT
transmites 1000Mbps(Gigabit) over all four pairs of CAT 5 UTP cable, 100BaseTX transmites
100Mbps over two pairs of CAT 5 UTP cable and 10BaseT transmites 10Mbps over CAT 3,4,5
UTP cable.
